I found my husband is using Grindr and when I asked him why, he said he's bored and just to pass time and make friends. I asked him to stop it , he told me he will but he kept using it secretly on and off. He still taking care of me and love me I know that . What shall I do ? Dose that mean he's bi ?

It's totally irrelevant if he's on a gay or straight dating app. It's unacceptable to be on any in a monogamous relationship.

whatsthecomingoverthehill · 16/08/2017 12:15

Gay or bi he's still sneaking around no doubt indulging his fantasies with other people. I'm sure you wouldn't be happy if he was chatting to other women and this is no different. Even if he is 'just' bi can you really carry on with someone who betrays your trust?

OP he obviously has an interest in men if he is on the App Grindr.

LellyMcKelly · 16/08/2017 12:19

My husband did this. Turned out he was gay. Regardless, your DH is cheating, or thinking of cheating. You don't pay for Grindr, download it, set up a profile, and look at pictures of other men because you're 'bored'.

BastardGoDarkly · 16/08/2017 12:19

Agree, he's probably gay/bi, but its the lying and possibly cheating that would end it for me.

I'm sorry, have you been together long?

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 12:24

Yes around 10 years
He swear he's straight. But he's hiding his phone and met guys that not allowed to meet
Do know what's going on
Don't fell comfortable with what's going on

All the time he's with me but one day he's going out with guys to a cafe or bar and I'm not allowed to go

What guys?

It very much sounds like he's cheating on you.

Can you access his messages?

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 12:26

He promised he will stop everything . But I did acount on grinder just to see if he stooped or not . He wasn't there for awhile then suddenly I saw him today .

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 12:27

I checked his phone ... he talks with guy but nothing wrong . Like normal chat

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 12:30

Don't know what to do
Shall I tell him that he's lying and I saw him on Grindr ?

It's fucking weird, it's fucking wrong and it's fucking disrespectful.

I don't care if someone is straight, bi or gay. I do care that they are honest and don't lie to their partner. He's already told you he'd stop and he hasn't. Your feelings are irrelevant to him. If he just wants to chat to guys, plenty of forums to do that without downloading an app that's for gay or bi guys.

End this sham of a relationship and the sooner the better

LoyaltyAndLobster · 16/08/2017 12:45

You should tell him.

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 13:39

I will tell him when I see him

Putyourhandsintheair · 16/08/2017 14:29

Make sure you have screen shots. Print outs etc.
Good luck!

Shoxfordian · 16/08/2017 14:49

He's definitely cheating on you and he's probably bisexual if not gay

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 15:25

Part of me doesn't want to accept it, the other part want to face The reality

BastardGoDarkly · 16/08/2017 16:16

You need to think about getting a sexual health check too love. Sad Flowers

sourgrapes28 · 16/08/2017 16:34

Doesn't really matter if he's bisexual, he's being unfaithful. Get all your proof together and as uncomfortable as it is please go and get checked for std's just incase.

Layla1234567 · 16/08/2017 16:57

Oh my god thinking of all of that make me more stress

Aquamarine1029 · 16/08/2017 17:11

Gay, bi or straight is irrelevant. He's cheating. Get tested and kick the bastard out.

DaddyBrookes · 16/08/2017 19:38

As has been said, if he wanted to meet guys for mates then there's other places. There is only one reason to have Grindr and it's not for meeting guys to go for a pint and talk about Rugby with. Plus he lied to you about stopping it.
